Today, Braidy Industries, Inc. (“Braidy”) and En+ Group subsidiary United Company RUSAL plc (“Rusal”) jointly announced the approval by their respective Boards of Directors of a $200 million lead investment in the Braidy Atlas mill by Rusal. In exchange for its investment, Rusal will obtain a 40% share in the Braidy Atlas, the first greenfield aluminum rolling mill built in the U.S. in 37 years. The deal is expected to close in the second quarter of 2019.

Rusal will supply 200,000 tons of certified low-carbon prime aluminum ingot and slabs each year for a 10-year period, allowing Braidy to target 20% lower carbon emissions than its nearest competitor. This will be the world's largest order for one mill of high-quality, pre-alloyed and low-carbon primary aluminum slabs.

Braidy Industries Chairman and CEO, Craig Bouchard, said, “This is a sustainability match made in heaven for the global aluminum industry.”

About the Braidy Atlas Mill:

  • Braidy Atlas is the first new U.S. greenfield rolling plant in 37 years.
  • This new plant is totally dependent on long-term supplies of high-quality, low-carbon aluminum.
  • No U.S. producer of prime aluminum is able to supply the huge quantities required.
  • Outside the U.S., only Rusal can supply low-carbon, high-quality aluminum at this scale.
  • Braidy and Rusal share the same vision of low-carbon growth and the opportunities it creates.
